these creatures? The usual answer is that the necessa-
ry fossil layers prior to the Cambrian period have
not been discovered yet. The fossils are just miss-
ing! How convenient! This, after all, was
Darwin’s excuse and many evolutionists after
him followed suit. Well, recent discoveries from
Canada, Greenland, China, Siberia, and
Namibia document quite clearly that this period
of biological creativity occurred in a geological in-
stant virtually all around the globe. So, the usual ex-

cuse no longer holds water. While evolutionists are
not exactly joining a creationist wave of conversion,
they are being forced to ask tough questions concerning the nature of
evolutionary change . . . Darwinism has always been characterized by
slow gradual change that is imperceptible in our time frame. Major
evolutionary change was only visible as we looked to the fossils to re-
veal the number and type of intermediates between species and ma-
jor groups. But the Cambrian explosion is anything but gradual, and
identifiable intermediates are totally absent [emphasis added]. 127
In fact, evolutionists did express all the imaginary probabilities
regarding this subject. But in producing their theories, they were
making a grave mistake by allowing no possibility that these crea-
tures had never evolved. (Or they may have recognized that possi-
bility, but were reluctant to accept it.) They did not consider that
these creatures were created, brought into being at that moment at
Allah’s command. They were unable to see that Allah, Who creates
all things in a flawless manner and order, also created complexity
and order in these arthropods’ system. They failed to calculate that
systems too perfect to permit any other explanation and too ordered
to permit any debate had actually been created.
However, Allah revealed this in the Qur’an, sent down by Him
